One reason coach Bo Ryan could be restricting Jarrod Uthoff's transfer to an ACC school is the possibility Wisconsin would face its former player in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge, an annual event that pits conference foes against one another. Uthoff told MetroSportsReport.com that Virginia officials contacted him. Uthoff, who will visit Creighton, also talked to Northern Iowa, but was notified the school has no available scholarships, according to MetroSportsReport.com.
